I don't get it why we need a 'framework' to abstract a single variable. With this series we now have three layers: a bootcount framework, a midlayer driver and a somfy specific driver. Can we please just do something like: common/bootcount.c: static int bootcount; /* * Call this with your actual boot count, already increased by one * for the current boot. */ int bootcount_set(int count) { if (bootcount) { pr_err("Bootcount already set\n"); return -EINVAL; } bootcount = count; return 0; } static int bootcount_init(void) { globalvar_add_simple_int_ro("bootcount", &bootcount, "%d"); return 0; } late_initcall(bootcount_init); Sascha -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
